When I glanced at the 'Operator's Manual' for the first time I thought it was going to be really funny and was just made to be a joke. But then I started to read the intro, and about the artist, and then the whole thing because it was interesting, informative, and was nothing like what I thought it was, although it was funny with the cartoons. It kept me interested all the way to the end, which doesn't happen much! I showed it to a friend and he thought it would be good for a health class or a class like it. - Dan Schulze, 14    

I read the book and started cleaning my toenails. - Leena, 16    

I have a different book my mom gave me but I never read it because it's just too much. It's big and it's just words, words, words. I like The Teenage Human Body Operator's Manual because you can go to the parts you want and read just them. It's really easy to look stuff up. I think every parent should give one to their kid when their kid is leaving home for good because it tells you things you need to know, like, when something is an infection or when to be concerned about a friend's drinking habits. If your mom said, 'I think your friend has a problem,' you'd probably just get mad. But if you read the signs in a book and realize your friend might be in trouble, it helps you believe
it. - Samantha Zorn, 14
